Does this swashbuckler look somehow also frumpy to you? You got it! Still, this Icelander definitely represents one of today’s trends. As early as 2009, the French model Patrick Petitjean reintroduced this look in a campaign for the H&M fashion store chain. Meanwhile, more and more men decide to let their beards grow.
